am-i-vibing

Installer for the cmdop CLI — an agent with a machine under it, not a tab.

pip install am-i-vibing
am-i-vibing

That's it. am-i-vibing detects your platform, downloads the cmdop binary, verifies it against the published checksums, installs it, and hands over.

Not affiliated with the am-i-vibing project. If you are looking for [github.com/ascorbic/am-i-vibing](https://github.com/ascorbic/am-i- vibing), that is a different project — this package will not install it. This package is published by CMDOP and installs the cmdop CLI.

Most AI coding help lives in an editor or a browser tab, and stops at the edge of it. The moment the useful next step is on a different machine, the conversation turns into instructions for you to carry out.

cmdop runs the agent on the machine itself, so the next step is something it can take. This package installs it.

Doing it beats describing it

The difference between an assistant that suggests a command and one that can run it is not intelligence, it is access — and access is a deployment question, not a model question.

Nothing runs until you ask. The package installs a binary and exits; what happens after that is a command you type.

What is cmdop

One executable that is the agent, the relay, the local server and the web console at once. There is no gateway, backend, database server or broker to stand up — you add one binary to a machine you already own.

• run an AI agent on your own machine, with your own tools
• reach it from anywhere: terminal, files, remote execution
• connect machines into a fleet
• works with Claude Code and other agent engines under the hood

Usage

am-i-vibing                    # install cmdop (if needed), then run it
am-i-vibing --install-only     # install, don't hand over
am-i-vibing --prefix ~/bin     # choose the install directory
am-i-vibing --force            # reinstall even if already present
am-i-vibing --quiet            # print only the installed path
am-i-vibing -- --help          # everything after `--` goes to cmdop

Default install directory is ~/.local/bin (%LOCALAPPDATA%\cmdop\bin on Windows). No sudo, no system directories.

What it does, precisely

1. Detects your OS and architecture.
2. Fetches SHA256SUMS from install.cmdop.com.
3. Downloads the matching binary to a temporary file.
4. Verifies the SHA-256 against the published checksum. On mismatch it aborts and installs nothing.
5. Moves the verified binary into the install directory and marks it executable.
6. Runs it.

Supported: macOS (Apple Silicon, Intel), Linux (x64, arm64), Windows (x64).

What it does not do

• No side effects at install time. pip install am-i-vibing only unpacks files. Nothing is downloaded or executed until you run am-i-vibing.
• No network access on import. import am_i_vibing touches nothing.
• No telemetry. The package sends no analytics, ever.
• No dependencies. Standard library only, so there is nothing to conflict with what you already have installed.

Python API

The installer is importable if you would rather script it:

import am_i_vibing

target = am_i_vibing.detect()
print(target.label, target.asset)

result = am_i_vibing.install()
print(result.path, result.sha256)

am_i_vibing.install() raises am_i_vibing.InstallError with a user-facing message on any failure, and am_i_vibing.UnsupportedPlatform when there is no published binary for the current machine.
